CAPR 190-1 & FEMA PIO Checklist

First published on June 4, 2007, CAPR 190-1 has been updated many times. Please find the latest copy at https://www.gocivilairpatrol.com/members/publications/indexes-regulations-and-manuals-1700/ *

This is an important regulation. The original, overly-long and at times confusing document was rewritten in 2007 as a much shorter version that made it easier to understand and follow. Many of its provisions will be familiar to experienced PAOs.

As a complement to CAPR 190-1, CAP uses the FEMA Public Information Officer Position List. You may download this PDF document at http://training.fema.gov/EMIWeb/IS/ICSResource/assets/PIO_PCL.pdf * or its MS Word version at http://training.fema.gov/EMIWeb/IS/ICSResource/assets/PIO_PCL.doc * (read-only; you’ll need to save it locally for editing).

This and other documents posted on this page http://members.gocivilairpatrol.com/media/cms/ES_Checklist_Guides_3EE42D4792EC4.doc * will help you organize your work during a mission and make it easier for you to do a good job.
